Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 952 - 901: A Smart child

In a dungeon where the king of dragons, Bahamut, was trapped, someone was visiting him. Naturally, it was Lord Thanos who came to give his report.

[So you didnʼt manage to find the one I asked you to find?] Bahamut asked Lord Thanos, kneeling on the ground, and the latter lowered his head.

ʼʼUnfortunately, we couldnʼt find anything. Iʼm ashamed of my incompetence.ʼʼ Lord Thanos explained while waiting for punishment.

However, Bahamut only snorted and did nothing else.

[It seems like that foolish child Lucifer died like predicted. What did that former goddess do?] He switched the subject.

Lord Thanos, who was expecting a punishment, was disappointed, but he quickly concealed this before answering.

ʼʼShe is probably preparing to become the next ruler. Itʼs hard to infiltrate the empire right now; all our spies have been killed.ʼʼ

[I see. Donʼt do anything for now. Focus on throwing more baits for humans to jump on while we will use this opportunity to complete our goal. I hope the ʼDemonʼs projectʼ is going smoothly?]

Lord Thanos, even with his overwhelming strength, shuddered when the name Demon was brought.

People from this world think they are fairly well informed, but what they know is a drop of a bucket in the middle of the ocean.

ʼʼYes, it is going according to the plan.ʼʼ Lord Thanos responded while trying to push down the goosebumps threatening to overwhelm his body.

[Good, donʼt you think it will be fun if the new ruler of Demons sighed a peace treaty with the other races when suddenly Demon will attack?]

ʼʼ!”

A chill crawled up Lord Thanosʼs spine as he realized what the king of dragons Bahamut meant.

ʼʼCertainly, it will be awesome.ʼʼ Lord Thanos replied while thinking his Lord was scarier when he used his brain. Most of their plans were devised by him; not only was he strong, strong to the point of absurdity, but he was also smart.

Lord Thanos was glad to be on his side. Serving someone like this was an honor, and a bright future awaited him once Mysthia was conquered, opening the road to the other worlds.

[Continue with the plan. Create new Numbers, and donʼt hesitate to sacrifice more.] Bahamut ordered before asking Lord Thanos to leave.

Everything would soon fall in place. Bahamut wondered what Alex would do. Who sweats his despair would be.

Bahamut had noticed that some people had their curse removed, probably Alexʼs doing, but it doesnʼt matter. It wouldnʼt change the overall situation. The world is still cursed. Even if by some miracle the curse was lifted, he doubted it. It wouldnʼt change anything because he had half conquered this world. He wouldnʼt fail in his mission.

He would succeed, and this would become his kingdom after swallowing the other worlds.

Suddenly, Bahamutʼs giant body shuddered because he felt a dragonʼs power somewhere. However, he couldnʼt pinpoint the exact location. It came from a girl. This girl would do a better vessel. However, for an unknown reason, his instinct warned him not to do anything. Bahamut chuckled and ignored it.

He sent the order to search for this girl.

Back to Alexʼs location.

The Eternal chain continued to swallow the Ice essences, distributing them to both Maria and its master while not forgetting to keep some for its use.

This continued for a long moment until the dungeon started shaking.

Rumble!

It was as if there was an earthquake. Artemia frowned; she could feel the dungeonʼs vitality being drained at fast speed. If this continued, it wouldnʼt be long before this dungeon would crumble. She must prevent this. Although, Alex had warned the emperor and the council at their last meeting.

They wouldnʼt take it kindly if another dungeon were to get destroyed soon; therefore, she had to prevent the worse-case situation.

Alex knew this; he was trying to stop the greedy Eternal chain from sucking like a starving kid. Mariaʼs body had undergone subtle change, she became more beautiful, and her hair had turned completely white.

Crack! Crack!

Alex felt the sound of something breaking apart, he didnʼt know what was breaking, but he felt like it was a good thing.

A chilling aura was emanating from Mariaʼs body right now, the same aura Alex felt from the Frozen fairies, it was not to the same extent, but it was a scary aura.

The Eternal chain kept sucking the ice essence inside the dungeon, but it was not enough; it started sucking the vitality of monsters inside the dungeon, distributing this between the three.

Alex noticed the change and was about to ask the Eternal chain to stop when Artemiaʼs furious voice reached his ears.

ʼʼAlex, stop it. Youʼll destroy the dungeon at this rate. I know you have warned them beforehand, but they wonʼt stay still if you destroy a named dungeon, especially this one. So please stop before itʼs too late.ʼʼ

Alex tried to stop the chain, but it was not listening.

Rumble! Rumble!

The dungeon kept rumbling, the room they were in began to lose its lusters like a dying candle, and Artemia was sure that by now, people might have started noticing the change outside.

She panicked.

ʼʼAlex, stop it!!!” Artemia shouted with all her might, but Alex didnʼt stop; the latter felt like crying but had no tears. If it were up to him, he would have stopped already, but this damned greedy chain didnʼt stop; it was not listening to him, and he couldnʼt cancel the summon. In fact, right now, Alex couldnʼt move; his body was in a state of euphoria he couldnʼt move.

Artemia was angry beyond words, but she took a deep breath and analyzed the situation. Alex, the man she knew, wasnʼt someone reckless when it comes to things like this. Surely, he didnʼt stop because of the chain refused to listen to him.

Thinking this, the princess and former goddess snorted and stepped forward.

ʼʼWhat a naughty kid.ʼʼ She said before grabbing the chain with her hand coated in lightning; she was trying to yank the chain from the ground forcibly. However, as soon as Artemiaʼs hand touched the chain, the lightning was sucked, and a tiny chain sprouted and pierced her palm.

The princessʼs eyes turned round.

ʼʼOh! No, itʼs not a naughty kid but a smart child.ʼʼ
